Former vice president and PDP flag bearer for the next general election, Atiku Abubakar has said his former boss Olusegun Obasanjo deserves to be included in the new naira note.



Atiku made this remark via several tweets on Saturday when commending Obasanjo impact in solving the Ethiopia and Tagray way.

He writes:

I celebrate the extraordinary prowess of His Excellency, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, in bringing peace to Ethiopia. I am not surprised. I know my boss. He did the same thing in Liberia and São Tomé and Príncipe during our time in office.

If for nothing else, he is most deserving of a Nobel Peace Prize, and I will nominate him when entries are open for nominations.

Africa is blessed to have a statesman of such impeccable democratic credentials as Chief Obasanjo. A man whose image ought to be in the redesigned Naira note to inspire future generations of Nigerians to sacrifice for their nation and continent.
